My iTunes won't open. When I click on the icon nothing happens

My iTunes won't open. When I click on the icon nothing happens. It doesn't bounce or anything. When i plug my iPhone into my macbook nothing happens either. I recently updated my operating system to the Yosemite. Everything worked fine until i updated it. Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions?

Program folder? In general backing up and restoring application folders is not going to work. Windows programs should be installed using the appropriate installation programs.

  • My firefox does not open, when I click on the icon nothing happens

    My firefox does nothing at all.

    Also having the same problem.
    I have tried the following with no luck.
    *Uninstalling and deleting profile + profile.ini then reinstalling
    *deleting the .parentlock file
    *deleting and reinstalling version 3.6.8.dmg
    *Checked the activity monitor that the application isn't listed as running
    *Downloaded addtrap and uninstalled again
    all with no luck.
    Try some of these first as they might fix your problem but not mine! ;)
    If anyone knows of something I may be missing I would appreciate any help.
    Thanks

  • My Itunes won't open when I click on the program.

    My Itunes won't open when I click on the icon/program. It will flash like it's going to open on the bottom bar on windows 7 but then doesn't do anything, I have tried deleting it and redownloading it, however this still hasn't done anything. What can i do??? Thanks.

    Can you right mouse click iTunes icon and choose "Run as Administrator"?
    If this fails:
    Try SCAN your Windows system files for possible corruption:
    Go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator"
    type in
    sfc /scannow
    let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
    Restart the computer if it did actually repair any files.

  • I have installed Firefox but when I click on the icon, nothing happens.

    I have just downloaded and installed firefox, but when I click on the icon nothing happens.

    In case you haven't solved this by now...
    Sometimes your security software will block new programs from accessing the internet. Are you getting any alerts along those lines?
    Sometimes Firefox will stall during startup and never display its window. In that case, you may need to manually "kill" the firefox.exe process using the Windows Task Manager before trying to start Firefox again.
    You can display the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Esc. Windows 8.1 has a different display than Windows 7, so I have to go by memory. If you see a tab named Applications, check that one first. Then check Processes, and finally check Details. If you find Firefox or firefox.exe on any of those tabs, select it and End Process (or other action to shut it down).
    After you are done with the Task Manager, try starting Firefox up again.

  • Firefox won't open when I click on the icon. I've tried uninstalling so that I can reinstall, but it says I have to close firefox (which isn't open), so I'm stuck.

    The problem: Firefox won't open when I click on the program.
    Solutions tried: #1) I tried to uninstall the program so that I can download it again, but the screen shows the message "firefox must be clsoed.. to proceed with installation". However, firefox is not open.
    #2) I tried to download firefox, thinking that possibly it would update and solve the problem. However, I get the same error message that "firefox must be clsoed.. to proceed with installation" Problem is that firefox is not open.
    I've done a screen shot, so you can see that I do not have the firefox browser open.

    Thanks for the reply. I tried repairing the permissions (as well as several other things like deleting the Finder preferences file), but no dice.
    Given that the problem cropped up right after updating OS X on two separate machines, it's looking to me like it's just a bug that needs squashing at this point.

  • Itunes will not open when i click on the icon or when I plug in my device.

    Itunes will not open when I click, left or right, on the icon nor when I plug in a device.

    are you sure your i-tunes is installed proper cause the icon is just a shortcut to the program.You might have some missing files. If so you may need to uninstall it and reinstall a new one.

  • I have downloaded some ibooks but when I click on the icon nothing happens - it won't open

    I have downloaded some ibooks from iTunes but icons will not open when I click on them. This issue applies to my Windows 7 computers and iPad (3rd Gen) and iPhone 4s.
    I can't find any help/support with this issue.

    iBooks only open in the iBooks app on an iOS device. It is possible that your download was corrupt, in which delete and download again from your purchased history.

  • Finder won't open when I click on the icon

    OSX Yosemite
    iMac 21.5 in , late 2009
    Processor 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory 8 GB 1067 MGz DDR3
    NVIDIA GeForce 9400 256 MB
    Out of the blue my Finder App will not open when I click the icon.  Finder will open if I click and hold the Finder icon and select New Finder Window.  It's more of an annoyance than anything, but I use Finder a lot and don't want the extra step of clicking and holding.
    I have checked the Finder functionality on my other Users and it works fine, so it is just my User that is having the problem.
    This is what I have tried to do to fix the issue:
    Delete com.apple.finder.com and restart
    Delete all Login Items and restart
    Unplug all peripherals and restart
    Test the issue in Safe Mode.  The problem still occurred in Safe Mode.
    Deleted my User and restored from Time Machine Backup.  Still have the problem.
    I don't know what else to try.  Any help will be appreciated.

  • My itunes will not open when I click on the icon. What happened?

    Good evening anyone. I do not know what I did but when I click on my Itune icon on my laptop the program will not open up.
    I do not know what I did wrong. Any ideas?

    Do you get an error message when you try to launch iTunes? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

  • My itunes will not open when I click on the icon. An system error appears. "the program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." Any ideas on how to resolve, I have tried installing

    My itunes will not open, it displays an error that MSVCR80.dll is missing. I tried reinstalling itunes but it fails because the service is not able to start.

    Same thing happened to me. I ended up completely uninstalling itunes then downloaded it again from http://www.apple.com/itunes/.   If you're using firefox, for some reason itunes will not download and  I  don't know if using googlechrome will also have problems,so just to  be  sure that it will work on your first try, use internet  explorer  when you download itunes. Good LUCK!!

  • ITunes will not boot.  I've deleted and updated to the newest release.  When I click on the icon, nothing happens.

    Repair permissions, restart your computer & try again.

    firefox won't start at all

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. The hotness suggests a hardware problem

  • I have Firefox installed but I cannot run it. When I click on the icon nothing happens. I also have IE and it loads and runs fine. Is there something that could be stopping Firefox from running? Thanks.

    I am using XP Pro at the latest level. I did have a problem with the Op Sys that was released by Microsoft but I have fixed that. I now am not able to run Firefox as I once did. What can I check in system .

    Try the procedures in the [[Firefox will not start]] article.
